for Donald Cobain in Nirvana Series (Untitled)
Suggested by user_133143
The series would go over the story of Nirvana and all of their members. The first season would be begin and be about Kurt's childhood in middle school and early troubles such as witnessing a kid's suicide, and his major drug use. (Age 14-18) and end with Kurt and Krist starting Nirvana. The second season would start with his adulthood, beginning and rise of Nirvana such as their first songs, and the making of them. It would also show the coming and going of the band members, and relationship of Kurt. It would end with the making of Nevermind and release of smells like teen spirit. The third season would go through the last years of nirvana and later on would go through the writing of Michael Azerrad's book about the band, and go through flashbacks of their lives.The series would start its end with Kurt's last days after running from rehab. It would also start Tom Grant's investigation to find Kurt. The series would finally end following Kurt's suicide and aftermath such as the seperation of the band, and beginning of Foo Fighters. If I was able to direct or co-direct the series, this is how I would visualize it. If you would like to suggest actors for roles, or more information that should be added, go ahead and do it. If I like your idea or suggestion I will add it.
